http://www.gravisfootwear.com/ I just wanted to know does Gravis shoes sell good, because in my town noone really skates them, we all skate like Cons, Emerica , and Nike and shit like that

filters/dylan mids occasionally..
good shoes. great board feel, rip fast.
my opinion the only brand of shoe that looks better the more fucked it gets.

maybe not ONLY, but they do deffinatley look better all fucked up, shoe wise i generally skate either adidas or gravis, the dylan lows (vulc) are the best skate shoes ive ever had, pity my shop only carries the canvas ones

Same, but only had one pair.
Good looking shoes though.

recently skated dylan slip ons and they're really good, going to skate arto lx after the busenitz's are done, and I have a pair of filter suede for chilling

Sorry to everybody, but seriously, fuck Gravis, those shoes are as ugly as Courtney Loves vagina..

AllOfTheEverything · « **Reply #10 on:** March 31, 2011, 12:06:22 PM »

Got a few pairs of the filters in canvas, suede, and waxed canvas. They definitely don't last long but the waxed ones look rad after a few sessions.

Ive been running the filters and dylan slip ons for awhile now, aslong as you get them in suede they last pretty damn well, the slip on is the most comfortable shoe ive ever skated in and the new arto mid is fucking amazing skating a sample of them at the moment and there so good

spare change · « **Reply #13 on:** March 31, 2011, 04:52:53 PM »

The suede on the few I skated was hit or miss.
tbison brown and forest green artos I had blew out where my pink toe was in less than a week
I just thought they might use better quality suede.

Nancy Chin The Manicurist · « **Reply #14 on:** March 31, 2011, 05:07:20 PM »

the dylan slip-ons are super duper comfortable . . . . but ripped after a day or two. Stay away from the canvas version. I've heard nothing but good things about the suede ones though..

the red dylans are my "chilling" shoes. Funky board feel. Don't know how long they'd last under constant abuse.

true for the oxblood dylans especially...

pandarelated · « **Reply #15 on:** March 31, 2011, 05:47:30 PM »

skated 2 pair of Arto LX.. both great.
a pair of filter wax canvas.. like a minimal canvas shoe.
filter tech tuff.. these things would not die..
i have some dylan reider furry suede slip on vulcs (as pictured above). super great for chilling.. only done a couple tricks in them. but seemed ill.

dont be so harsh on gravis.

the weird thing is.. normally everyone complains about everyone just copying vans.. etc.
gravis did something new with pretty much their hole line.. and now everyone are making gravis rip offs.

emerica for example..
new malto? new leo? all taking ideas from the arto.

at least gravis did it's own thing. imo

filters are my favorite shoes. the fit amazing, don't have any stupid logos, and just have a clean simple design that works

i've had a coupe of filters, the tec tuffs are the shit and seem to last forever. the poron insoles are top notch.
they should make tec tuff laces.

Avicci · « **Reply #23 on:** April 01, 2011, 07:11:11 AM »

Only pair I skated were a free pair of Filters. Nothing to appealing to me.

VictoriousOG · « **Reply #24 on:** April 01, 2011, 07:23:03 AM »

I back Gravis, good performing/looking shoes and awesome team. They just need to work a little bit more on using better materials for the shoes.

They actually don't have poron insoles.It's a layer under the insole.

fair enough, but my point is that the arto design isnt being ripped off. its a pretty basic shoe with a low profile sole. the leo is just a laced (which came out before the artos) with a vulc sole.

as for gravis' quality, the soles are really good but they need more uppers with tough suede and less canvas.

Omamori · « **Reply #27 on:** April 01, 2011, 12:20:01 PM »

A big reason why I like Gravis is because they hardly make funky colored shoes and the logo's are minimal.

I'm either gonna get the Artos or the HUF Choices, which are better?
